An important message from our Principal

Fighting will not be tolerated! If you instigate a fight (confront someone, relay messages, spread rumors, yell, jump up and down, challenge others, gesture, ignore a directive to stay away from a fight, etc…) or fight you will be suspended. The best way to avoid a fight is to report a problem or rumors to an adult immediately. Confronting others is not the right choice! Rushing to a fight is not the right choice! You will not be able to attend the Prom if your suspension days extend beyond spring break. If you are a senior and get suspended for being involved in a fight for any reason, you will not be able to participate in the graduation ceremony. All students have the ability and knowledge to make the right choices. Thank you to the majority of students who come to school to learn and portray the Kahuku spirit and pride. The countless hours that you spend on positive activities on and off campus will never be overshadowed by the unacceptable behaviors of a very small percentage of students. Congratulations to all of the students who participated in Con Con at Turtle Bay on Friday. I can’t wait to find out what bills were actually passed!
